This course is designed for graduates of our Wilderness Advanced First Aid courses that want to continue their training to Wilderness First Responder level. This comprehensive course will review concepts learned in earlier courses and offer a greater focus on evacuation, environmental topics, critical thinking and leadership.
Students must have an unexpired WMA Wilderness Advanced First Aid course to enroll.
A comprehensive review package will be mailed to the student and must be completed before the start of the course. The Challenge Recertification Course is designed to recertify students as wilderness first responders regardless of what provider issued their original certification.
